In addition to dropping some vinyl, Babe Rainbow has a ’shaved’ mixtape poppin’ on the internet next week with Rico Uno. The babe himself just shot us over a track to preview, shit is legiiiit.

Lost in loops and shuffling beats in a humid sleep while finding the environment to be reflective of a South American guerilla war zone. How do we work efficiently in these conditions?

ps. david lynch’s wild at heart is screening tonight at mccarren park in brooklyn. see ya there.
Our summer heartthrob Babe Rainbow and our new pals Basketball have far more than their Canadian heritage to talk about. Found this collab via Pinglewood and the further my jaw drops the more I think that my eyes will never roll into place from the back of my head. Yeah, it’s one of those.
“This song frustrated the hell out of me,” he told me. “I wrote the melody and layered sounds pretty quickly but couldn’t find a percussive pattern I liked. I’ve tried so many different drum loops and was never been happy with it.
“I couldn’t scrap it though, I thought the music was beautiful. It’s not as dark as my other stuff, more heartbreaking, melancholic. I honestly make music for myself so if it affects me I’m doing something right. So my friends in Basketball did the percussion for me on this song. It’s called Proper.” [via Pinglewood]
Just listening to our favorite sub-whamp sound characteristic in dubstep and applying it to a fairly minimal arrangement gets me pretty excited. There’s a new language brewing up in America’s crown and no doubt we’re gonna hear much more from it. I’m going to toss in a Noah23 track into this post, another Canadian that we love. And more on Basketball when I get back to NY this week.
